Contact lenses are an alternative to glasses. If you are thinking about getting contact lenses, learn the facts first and visit your eye doctor for an eye exam.

👁️ Thinking about contact lenses? Here’s what you need to know!

Contact lenses can be a great alternative to glasses, but before you get them, there are two must-do steps:
1️⃣ Learn the facts about contacts – they are medical devices that need to fit your eyes properly.
2️⃣ Visit your eye doctor – only a licensed eye care professional can check your eyes and write a prescription.

Not everyone can safely wear contacts. Conditions like repeated eye infections, severe allergies, or dry eyes may make contacts a poor choice. However, nine out of 10 people who want to wear them can wear contacts!

Stay safe, see your eye doctor, and get the perfect fit for your eyes! 💙

🌟 Employee Spotlight: Deb Schiavoni 🌟

If you’ve ever stepped foot in our office, chances are you’ve met Deb — and if you haven’t, you’ve definitely felt her presence! As our amazing Office Manager, Deb is the glue (and sometimes the duct tape 😅) that holds everything together.

She’s the first one here, the last one to leave, and somehow manages to keep the whole place running smoothly while juggling a million things at once. Whether it’s helping a patient, supporting a teammate, putting out (non-literal) fires, or finding a solution before anyone else even knows there’s a problem — Deb’s “fix-it” mindset never fails.

She’s also the heart of our office: the one who listens when someone needs an ear, lifts others up when they’re struggling, and gives the best hugs in the building. 💛 Her quick wit, sarcasm, and sense of humor keep us all laughing, even on the busiest days.

Deb, thank you for being our fearless leader, problem solver, therapist, comedian, and office mom all rolled into one. We truly don’t know what we’d do without you! 🙌
